Apologies if this has already been posted recently. I just came across this upgraded video and had previously only seen Im Goin Down with Sammy Hagar.

Jerry playing with Elvis Costello, Commander Cody, Sammy Hagar and others

That was cool. Thanks. I like the way Jerry and Elvis traded guitars. Twice. Oh, and James Burton was definitely the alpha dog when he was out there.

Yes, can't believe I forgot to mention James, definitely one to showcase his chops. His playing here seems to be going more for the flashy pop playing of the time (he was Elvis Costello's lead at this point in his long history). I prefer his early Elvis Presley and other rockabilly myself.

I had a chuckle about the back and forth guitar trading as well.
I found this piece of interview with Jerry and Elvis over on Dave Davis blog...Thanks Dave.

The audio for the complete set is there as well, including Bobby joining in.
